Ghost Rider, for David Arnold

Nicolas Cage will be playing another super-hero on the big screen: Ghost Rider. The film is being now shot in Australia, by director Mark Steven Johnson, who didn't succeed enough with Daredevil.

Cage will be supported by other artists like Peter Fonda (Mephisto), Wes Bentley (Blackheart) and Eva Mendes (Roxanne). Jon Voight was also asked to play a role in that film, but he finally quit.

The soundtrack for Ghost Rider fill be written by David Arnold, and the film will be showed in theaters on summer 2006.

Jablonsky will score The Transformers

The Transformers was a TV cartoon series which became famous during the 80s. Two alien robot sagas -the Autobots and the Decepticons- rally constantly, showing an ability to turn into cars. While director Michael Bay is still looking for a definitive title, Dreamworks already bought the rights and Steve Jablonsky has started to write the score, like he did before with the same director in The Island.
